Pest and Insect Control

Pest and Insect Control

If left unchecked, rats and mice can become a real problem to homes and properties. They can damage electrical cables, creating holes and spread diseases. Not too mention the uneasy feeling of knowing that rats are around!

If you’ve got rats and mice in your home or business it’s easy to solve the problem with Selleys Talon range of pest control. First, take care to remove all competing sources of food or water that might prevent rats and mice from taking the bait. Don’t leave pet food out, make sure garbage bin lids are tightly fitted and cover your compost. Fix any leaking taps or pipes. Remove bird baths and bird feeders. Then place Talon baits in several areas around your property to get rid of the rodent problem.

Rats and mice like to live in dark, sheltered places with access to abundant food and water. They also like to run along walls where they feel safe. Look for oily black rub marks around walls and skirting boards which may indicate a ‘rat run’. Try and place your baits along these rat runs, for the best success.

Talon Pellets can be used in dry areas in and around your home to bait rats and mice and kill them after one feed.

Talon Wax Blocks are an easy to use bait, which can be used in wet or dry areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, garages and sheds. They also kill after one feed and don’t require handling.

If you have pets or children you need to be careful of using poisons around the home. If you live close to natural bushland you also need to be careful of not poisoning native animals.

Once you are free of rats and mice it’s important seal any entrance holes. Take a look at Selleys range of fillers to help you repair any entrance holes to prevent them coming back.
